The iTouch line (iPod, iPhone, and iPad) have a remarkable program called VoiceOver. This is a screen reader for the iTouch that uses its own set of gestures for commands. For example, I can move a finger around my home screen (like the desktop on a Windows machine) and hear what icons I move over. To activate one, I can double-tap anywhere on the screen; the last item spoken is activated, not the item where I touch. I can jump around web pages, start and pause speech, and more. It is a very accessible device, especially if you have a compatible braille display (and many displays work with the iTouch line via bluetooth, including braille text entry).
